A little pre-game drama at Beaver Stadium. Running back Evan Royster rolled an ankle in warmups and was helped into the locker room by a team physician.

He returned about five minutes later to cheers from the student section and appears to be OK now.

Elsewhere, it's a pretty active Penn State sideline down there. Aaron Maybin, LaVar Arrington and Ki-Jana Carter are among the long list of former players attending, along with American Idol host Ryan Seacrest. Apparently, Seacrest's father is a Penn State graduate, and Seacrest will watch the game with university president Graham Spanier.

One more note: defensive tackle Brandon Ware is in uniform for the first time this season. Ware has been out of action since sustaining a broken foot in the preseason. On the team's injury report, Ware is listed as "Out," though that status was determined Monday.
